5、ed Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:4D1107 Test Method for Ethanol-Toluene Solubility of Wood3.Principle of Method3.1 When wood is treated with strong acids the carbohy-drates are hydrolyzed,leaving an insoluble residue which isdetermined as acid-insoluble lignin.Since some of the woodextractives(oils,re
6、sins,fats,waxes,tannins,gums,and starch)would remain insoluble with the lignin,these are first removedby extraction with suitable solvents.The 72%sulfuric acidmethod for lignin contains two and sometimes three prelimi-nary extractive treatments of the wood,namely:(1)withethanol,to remove the catecho
7、l tannins;(2)with ethanol-toluene solution,to remove the resins,oils,fats and waxes;and(3)with hot water,to remove the remaining water-solublematerials.3.2 The ethanol extraction is necessary in analysis of woodshigh in tannin;that is,oak,chestnut,redwood,etc.It has notbeen shown necessary in the mo
8、re common pulpwoods,suchas the various species of spruce,pine,fir,hemlock,poplar,birch,beech,and maple.It is recommended that for thesewoods the alcohol extraction be omitted unless it is desirablefor a special purpose.In analysis of woods not listed,thedesirability of the alcohol extraction depends
9、 upon the purposeof the analysis and the report should state whether or notethanol extraction was used.4.Significance and Use4.1 Wood contains approximately 20 to 30%lignin.Re-moval of the lignin is the primary objective of pulping andbleaching procedures.Determination of the lignin contentprovides
10、information for the evaluation and application ofthese processes.5.Apparatus5.1 Extraction ApparatusA compact form of Soxhlet ex-traction apparatus,with ground-glass joints,is preferable.Theapparatus shall consist of the following items:5.1.1 Soxhlet Extraction Flask,having a capacity of 250mL.5.1.2
11、 Soxhlet Extraction Tube,45 to 50 mm in insidediameter,having a capacity to the top of the siphon ofapproximately 100 mL and a siphon tube approximately 55mm in height.Extraction tubes of these dimensions siphonmore rapidly than extractors with higher siphon tubes.5.1.3 Condenser,of the Hopkins inne
